Have to agree with you, and I don't see this changing anytime soon. The game has evolved into a work of art and is actually going to be a part of an exhibit at New York City's Museum of Modern Art. Tough game to top.

Personally i'd rather have my eyes stabbed with hot pokers while being forced to listen to Justin Beiber...

Age of Wushu I will check out when it hits English Open beta (i know you can change the Russian one to play.. but IMHO if the company wants me to play their game I won't have to do things like that).

I guess Wurm would be a consideration for the OP as well.

Pathfinder is one of those games that "on paper" has everything.. whether they can deliver remains to be seen. They do at least have a list of people working on this with both RPG (pen and paper) and MMO experience. So I'm hoping for something a step up from typical inie releases.

Starvault's reponse to criticism related to having a handful of players as the official "test" team for a supposed MMO: "We've just have another 10ish folk kind enough to voulenteer added tot the test team" (SIC) This explains much about the state of the game :-)

I just wish someone would come out with a sci-fi MMORPG sandbox to include...

- Expansive universe with planetary exploration possible as well.

- More asthetic features such as comets, meteor showers, maybe solar storms that wreak havos on your ships navigation systems while in play or even the ship's manuverability, distant super novas, actual twinkling of distant stars, etc.

- Space stations you can actually dock at and explore (I know EVE has this now, but know little about it's extents). I.E. mechanic shops, bars to mingle with other players, trade centers, Security centers for bounty hunters, etc.

- Twitch-based combat instead of EVE's style of point and click.

- Expansive selection of species you can be. Even the ability for players to discover new ones through space and planet exploration that become unlockable to the player.

These are just some things that would be neat (Or refreshing rather) to see. I am sure others can add to it. Although I enjoyed EVE for some time (A bit over 2 years off and on)...it just lacked in some areas...for me anyways. I am aware there are many that have played since it's release and enjoy it as is...different strokes for different folks. But for me, beyond joining a Corporation and going into low sec...it was farmville in space.

Ive tried pretty much every sandbox MMORPG. EVE Online is the best and most complex game by far. But its not the most fun since its hard to log in and have quick PvP action. The most fun and interesting sandbox for me is Age of Wushu (Age of Wulin). New game which was a huge surprise and sucked me in like no other.

I also played Archeage which many hope to be their dream sandbox MMO. Comparing those two I prefer AoW

Id say give Mortal Online a go, its now F2P aswell, Small indie company so there is ofcourse quit a few bugs but overall the game offers SO MUCH that the bugs is easy to live with. If you get attached to mounts/pets/gear this game is not for you. Its a sandbox and its great!

I wouldnt consider Darkfall a sandbox. more open world Arena themepark.
